Now before i start, i understand that you don't want any post about why someone receives a infraction. I am posting for clarification, so i don't get more in the future. Not only that, i got a infraction reversed a few months ago because someone made a mistake. I have got 2 infractions in the past 4 days and to be honest, im not really sure on how i got them. One for bumping a thread and another for duplicate threads. Bumping infraction: For some reason i can't find this thread. For clarification purposes, why did i receive this infraction? A costumer posted a review for my product. I replied saying "Thanks" and i also posted how many reviews were left and ect... Now what was wrong here? Am i not allowed to do this? Duplicate threads: Now this is pretty self explanatory, though i see duplicate threads for this user. http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1612049 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1612772 Am i not allowed to do this? can this user do this cause of some special privilege? I did the same thing they did. Just let me know. Thanks for your time.
Yea but shawn the problem is i got a infraction for just answering someones question such as right now. That's like me getting a infraction right now, because im interacting with you. I think that one was a mistake. If anything, the duplicate threads is a understanding and i deserve that. I should have read the rules, other then seeing someone else doing it. Anyway to reverse it? I really honestly think it was a mistake or something. Unless the mod who did it can clarify.
Your deleted message was: "First review copy sent. One more left. " That's a clear case of bumping. I just gave you another infraction for bumping the same thread with: "Thank you, for both of your honest reviews." If you wish to thank someone, send them a private message or some flowers. No one else needs to know your gratitude for providing a review, and it does nothing for anyone else reading the thread. Again, it's bumping, and subject to infractions...
I wasn't bumping on purpose. I was stating how many are left and that was after someone posted a message. I didn't post a message right after i created the thread. Since someone posted above me how is that bumping? Now you are stating, i can't thank people for posting a review? Ha this isn't the same old bumping story, your clearly showing you just gave me a infraction for thanking people for reviews. Is this what DP is changing into? I can't thank people in a thread for posting reviews? Anyways ill make sure to not thank anyone. Im sure i can provide 1000's of threads with people thanking others for reviews. Im sure there all entitled to infractions as well. Better get to work then. Ill report them all if you need me too. Not to mention i was asking nicely. Your response was quite rude.
Correct. You can't thank someone for a review, because it does not add any value to the thread. People can already see the review. Feel free to make as many reports as you feel are appropriate; that's what the reporting system is for. For the record I wasn't being rude, I was being concise. If I were to call you a jackass or a whiner, then yes, that could be interpreted as rude or offensive. As I'm a moderator, and not a customer service agent, there really aren't any specific requirements for hospitality...
Anything that is between you and someone else exclusively (for example thanking them for a review) should be in PM. It works just as well (if not better).
